Mesenchymal stem cells reverse thymus aging by reprogramming the DNA methylation of thymic epithelial cells
Background: A decrease in the number and activity of thymic epithelial cells (TECs) is an important factor in thymic degeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) treating thymic ageing is a promising strategy, but the DNA methylation modification mechanism in TECs remains unclear. Methods: Aged rhesu...
